| Revenue Recognition |
Revenue Recognition Contract Balances Our contract assets relate to our trademark licensing revenue stream, which arrangements are typically long-term and non-cancelable. Contract assets are reclassified to accounts receivable when the right to bill becomes unconditional. Our contract liabilities consist of billings or payments received in advance of revenue recognition and are recognized as revenue when transfer of control to customers has occurred. Contract assets and contract liabilities are netted on a contract-by-contract basis. Contract liabilities are classified as deferred revenue in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The following table summarizes our contract assets and certain contract liabilities (in thousands): | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | September 30, 2026 | | December 31, 2025 | | December 31, 2024 | | Accounts receivable | $ | 10,217 | | | $ | 4,120 | | | $ | 7,271 | | | Contract Balances: | | | | | | | Contract assets, current portion | $ | 1,693 | | | $ | 1,733 | | | $ | 1,531 | | | Contract assets, net of current portion | 6,850 | | | 7,467 | | | 7,848 | | | Contract liabilities, current portion | (8,974) | | | (11,015) | | | (9,693) | | | Contract liabilities, net of current portion | (12,405) | | | (14,252) | | | (5,762) | | | Contract liabilities, net | $ | (12,836) | | | $ | (16,067) | | | $ | (6,076) | |

Such unrecognized revenue does not include variable consideration determined based on the customer’s subsequent sale or usage.
